By day it's just another narrow alleyway common in Tokyo, but at night the street turns into a mini nightlife area for the salarymen of Tokyo. With numerous tiny #bar lining up, the nickname comes from the fact in the past so many drunk salarymen doing their "bussiness" there because there's no toilet anywhere in this alleyway. Today, regulation has been set in the area so it is a lot cleaner than before. The alleyway is very narrow and can only fit at maximum 2 people at a time so be mindful of your surrounding when visiting especially when there's many drunk people walking by from the bars. The bars are also very tiny and can only fit less than 10 people at a time.

Aug 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Interrupted stay, but a GREAT property Booked this wonderful property nearly a year before we travelled. Unfortunately, one of our party of 4 became ill while in Osaka, and we were unable to check into this property in Tokyo as planned. We understood there would be no refund. Ash said he'd hold it through our rental period, and 2 days later 2 of us tried to come for a few nights. However, Typhoon Lan turned for a direct hit in the Osaka area, so we needed to reunite our group and only stayed one night in this property. Much appreciation to Ash for accommodating such a strange turn of events on this trip. The property itself is HUGE for a Tokyo rental, and filled with many amenities and comforts. The location 5-10 min walk to the subway was great, and a quiet and safe neighborhood. I would completely rent this property again! We were disappointed that illness and a typhoon got in the way of our week in Tokyo, but that's just how things happen sometimes. We made it back to Osaka on the last shinkansen before the lines were shut down for 2 days, and still had a wonderful trip! Thank you to Ash for being so adaptable to our ever changing situation! ##### Kathy Z. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### austin d.

We loved the location-very quiet but close to a subway line that takes you to all the sites. Our only complaint is that the upstairs hallway remained very hot and humid, and the back 2 rooms were never able to get comfortably cool. Thankfully, there were fans available and were used to get some air circulation. The check in process and host availability was top notch. Great local restaurants and stores to check out. ##### Carrie M. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen B.

It’s located in a quiet local neighborhood within walking distance to the train and several restaurants including the much needed 711\. Our hosts made the check in process very easy with with a fantastic welcome packet that gives you all you need to know and he even met us at the station on a rainy night with umbrellas to lead us to the rental. We enjoyed staying in this quaint traditional Japanese home. It was very comfortable for our group of six adults and is well stocked with all that we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate staying here, or any other of their properties. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality! ##### Tia B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erik S. Jul 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful house, neighborhood, and hosts The Samurai House was a wonderful home base in Tokyo for myself and my three teen kids! Each of us had our own space to retreat to when we needed some quiet time, and the main living room on the upper floor was also great for shared family time. The house is large for Tokyo standards but built for folks of Japanese stature circa mid-1950s, so beware of low doorframes if you are a tall American. :) Everything in the house was in great shape, and the AC was delightful on muggy summer days. We loved the location as well. It is about a 2 minute walk to multiple restaurants and the local 7-11, and a 3-4 minute walk to the Nakano-shimbashi station on the Maronouchi line as well as even more restaurants, takeout sushi and bento places, etc. Super convenient and easy for my 13yo to navigate and buy himself snacks when he was awake early due to jet lag. Our hosts were fantastic as well. They explained the house and neighborhood requirements for all of us, were always responsive to questions ("My kid forgot some clothes; where's a good place to buy some?..."), and checked in occasionally just to see how things were going for us. ##### Erik S.

Oct 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house/location Great house for a large group, everything was as advertised. Beds were very comfortable and even had a crib for a baby and bunch of toys! We were there for the biggest Typhoon in recorded history to hit Tokyo and the owners kept in touch constantly and helped with the storm shutters. They have everything down to a science - thanks for a great stay! ##### Kendrick B. ### 8/10 Good #### Christine G. Oct 12, 2025 ##### Christine G.
